About a lucky man who made the grade

Middle: 

E 
Woke up, fell out of bed 
                         Dsus2 
Dragged a comb across my head 
         E                  B7sus4 
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup 
    E            B7sus4             (B7) 
And looking up I noticed I was late (ha ha ha.) 
         E 
Found my coat and grabbed my hat 
                        Dsus2 
Made the bus in seconds flat 
         E                B7sus4 
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke 
    E                         B7sus4 
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream.
